Which Assassin’s Creed game introduced the protagonist Connor, also called Ratonhnhaké:ton?

The story behind the answer

Assassin’s Creed III introduced the protagonist Connor, also called Ratonhnhaké:ton. The game follows his life during the American Revolution, where he becomes an Assassin and opposes Templar influence in the colonies.

Connor is the son of Haytham Kenway, who is initially presented as a playable protagonist. This family connection links Assassin’s Creed III to Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, which tells the earlier story of Haytham’s father, Edward Kenway.

The narrative includes historical figures such as George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Samuel Adams. Major settings include Boston, New York, the frontier, and the Mohawk Valley.

Connor’s names can cause confusion because “Connor” is the English name commonly used in the game, while Ratonhnhaké:ton is his Kanien’kehá:ka name. Both refer to the same protagonist, not separate characters.
